Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $38,317 ten years after completion, while carrying typical debt of $10,674. This creates a manageable debt-to-earnings ratio of just 28%, well below the federal guideline of 40%. Monthly loan payments of $113 consume about 3.5% of median income. The 92.5% employment rate reflects strong job placement in healthcare, business, and technical fields that drive the Coachella Valley economy. However, the 30.16% loan repayment rate suggests many graduates struggle with payments despite modest debt loads. Five-year earnings of $38,245 show minimal income growth after graduation. Given the low debt burden and solid employment outcomes, this represents an average return on investment for career-focused training.
